Do you experience inner critic invading your self worth or have fears that limit your full potential? Do you struggle with boundaries or people pleasing? Over time various experiences, relationships or situations can strip us of our confidence, create fears and unleash ones inner critic and impact self confidence. Therapy with me can rebuild confidence, value and self-worth and reclaim your life without sacrificing your own needs. My counseling style is welcoming, warm, interactive, relaxed and non-judgmental. I am my authentic self in therapy sessions and provide a safe space for you to come as your are as well.

Within the 23yrs of working in mental health, Vonda have striven to bring an effective blend of experience, expertise, clarity, concern and action to the therapy process in order to maximize outcomes and provide genuine healing and wholeness to individuals, marriages and families. She knows that life isn’t always easy and sometimes, even the strongest people need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s challenging problems. She also knows that everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point and the only difference between you and another is "how" you choose to handle "what" has or is happening to you.

The mind is the most powerful resource of the body. It is also, unfortunately, the least managed. It keeps a record of experiences and dictates emotions to us based on those experiences. What we think, feel, and believe impacts how we interact and perform. Often, more than we know. What I do is help facilitate mind and body realignment for the achievement of optimal performance in school, at work, and in personal lives. With an eclectic and flexible approach, I integrate mindfulness, motivational interviewing, cognitive-behavioral therapy, self-reflection, and different holistic approaches to address your overall well-being.

I advocate for my clients to help them become self-sufficient and independent in developing healthy behaviors. I am passionate about helping clients identify their feelings, needs, and wants while learning how to effectively process and express these needs.

Are you feeling a bit stuck? Want change, but don’t know how to get there? Let's explore how better to communicate our wants and needs. Let's understand our coping mechanisms. Let's ask ourselves why we struggle to care for ourselves, the way we care for others. Let's look at our beliefs, coping styles and behaviors that repeat, even though they no longer serve us.

The therapeutic relationship is one of the most important aspects of individual therapy. My approach is helping individuals grow to be the person they want to be. I believe that anyone can overcome their struggles with intentionality, and time. My job is to give you the care and insight to support your journey towards becoming your authentic self. While I do offer extensive experience in therapy, I make it my priority to understand you first. You know yourself better than anyone else. You also know what you’ve experienced and your innate need to be at peace.

You can feel confident that whatever your issue is, we can talk about it and together we can figure out an approach to alleviate your suffering. Sometimes we need guidance while at other times we need someone to listen and hold space for us. It is possible that you are looking for a fresh take on your circumstances or have tried "everything" out there and are ready to give up. Do not be discouraged. We can figure out a way for you to heal.
